    What's special

    Glamorous powder room
    Step into luxury in this immaculate home on Washington's most prestigious streets overlooking farmland and large protected fields. The front perennial gardens have been meticulously updated over the past 5 years to create a seasonal flow of non stop interest and color. They lead to an expansive back lawn which is completely flat for play and shaded by an enormous antique Locust tree. The yard continues around to the pool area with, cabana, outdoor shower and terraces with plentiful space for lounging and entertaining. Inside, the foyer leads to a center hall staircase which the main level rooms circulate around. To the right is the great room, with spectacular views, auto shades, fireplace and screened porch. Then onto the gourmet kitchen with large island, butler's pantry, bar, and breakfast nook with gas fireplace. Continue to the media room/office which has a full bath and can be used as a main floor primary or flexible 4th or 5th bedroom. The glamorous powder room, mudroom and 2 car garage complete this level. Upstairs hosts a primary suite which is currently used with an attached office, his/hers baths, walk out deck and multiple closets. However, the office and its bath can easily be converted to a 4th upstairs bedroom. This level is completed by 2 ensuite guest rooms and the main laundry. The lower level features a gym and second laundry room and plenty of storage. Just minutes to the chic shops, farm stands and fine dining options of Washington, New Preston, Roxbury and Woodbury. 8 minutes to New Morning organic market and just 3 minutes to the Mayflower Inn and Spa.
